What does it indicate when the sound beacon is on an avatar?

[Aramina Gilgandra]

I can see a sound beacon on a prim that is playing environmental sounds.

You can see various types of beacons with View/Beacons.

The yellow beacon is the sound beacon.

What does it mean when I see this same type of beacon on an avatar?

there is no visible attachment and there is no attachment visible with "Highlight Transparent"

Hello Aramina. Means that the avatar wears something (could be an attachment) which creates a sound. Could be also an active gesture.

Something puzzles me the way you put it: if there is no visible attachement nor attachment visible with "hightlight transparent", the how do you actually SEE it? :smileysurprised::smileytongue:

I think LoveAngel is right - It is most likely an attachment the person is wearing. It does not have to be transparent to any degree. The person could have a small attachment with no transparency hidden inside their body emitting sound. If so, I believe it would not show up with 'Highlight transparent'.

Luc's right.  I can put a scripted sound into anything I'm wearing ... shoes that click when I walk, jewelry that jingles, a light saber that humms .... anything.
